Feature regression in the last update: touchpad touchstart doesn't select the square

Greetings

As reported previously by me (http://en.lichess.org/forum/lichess-feedback/potential-regressing-on-touchpad-click-behaviour) and another player (http://en.lichess.org/forum/lichess-feedback/touchpad-has-become-poorly-responsive-on-lichess) touchpad behaviour regressed past June.

Up until the last upgrade there was one workaround: after the first successful square selection (achieved by clicking the touchpad instead of tapping) the bug went away but after the upgrade even this workaround ceased to work.

Can you guys from the dev team take a look at it? As a fellow coder I can help debug the javascript code responsible for this feature, for that I would only need to be pointed at the general part of the js code that handles the mouse, pointer and touch events.

Thanks for the amazing platform and best regards
